I've played a few impromptu games of Dice in the taverns with several players lately and it has been a nice little diversion that leads to some interesting, if not profound RP. Which is a nice change of pace from the 'we have to save the land and promote the global dominion of (insert god, philosopy or whatever).
Anyway, I figured I'd post the very simple and intuitive rules here as anyone spending any time in a Tavern in Sundren could have picked them up by now.
Cheers!
Northland Dice Rules (2 players):
Both players agree on an ante
Each player rolls 2d6 from the DMFI tool
High roll wins the pot
If a tie, both players re-ante, doubling the pot and roll again.
To 'cheat' at dice you roll a sleight of hand check versus spot check of any players or even bystanders to the game.
If successful the 'cheater' adds 2 to their 2d6 roll.
It is up to any players that spot the cheat how they want to RP it out.
(for 3 or more players)
same basic rules. Only change would be that if 2 or more players tie for high roll, the 3rd and any other players who rolled less are out of that pot until someone wins it and all players re-ante.
Have fun and feel free to hit up Hrothgar for a game anytime! He is the most fun type of gambler, one who really believes that there is skill and strategy to completely random games of chance!
